Again, so what? The only commonality between all the variants has been the rate of transmission, the differences lethality has been negligible and all vaccines appear to be effective.

So as it is all a “risk based” decision, given all the available evidence, the risk of a totally new variant that is even more transmissible and vaccine resistant would appear low. Very low.
